Soho House Hotel, Istanbul
Soho House Istanbul is a stunning retreat set within the historic Palazzo Corpi, a 19th-century neoclassical building designed by Italian architect Giacomo Leoni. Originally commissioned by a wealthy Genoese merchant, the site later became the first U.S. diplomatic mission in the city, serving as the American embassy and consulate for over a century before Soho House transformed it into a private members’ club and hotel in 2015.
The property is a masterclass in blending eras, featuring restored 19th-century frescoes alongside cozy, maximalist interiors. One of its standout features is the luxurious Cowshed Spa, which offers an authentic Turkish hammam experience. Guests can also enjoy amenities like a screening room, a boxing ring in the gym, and a rooftop terrace that provides sweeping, unforgettable views over the Golden Horn.
Beyond the hotel’s walls, you are perfectly positioned in the vibrant Beyoğlu district. A short walk leads you to the bustling Istiklal Avenue, renowned for its diverse culinary scene and nightlife. Cultural landmarks are also in abundance, with the excellent Pera Museum and the iconic Galata Tower located just minutes away.
Whether you are here to explore the city’s historic treasures or simply to enjoy the house’s refined atmosphere, the location offers easy access to the heartbeat of Istanbul. From the nearby historic churches to the contemporary galleries hidden in the backstreets, you are at the center of a city where European and Asian influences collide in the most beautiful way.
Expert reviews
“The building—an ornate 19th-century palazzo, all marble and frescoes—is pretty head-turning, and bedrooms occupy a glass annex, tricked out in the brand’s instantly identifiable style with a Turkish twist.”

Highly recommedable at unique hotel in Istanbul city center
Nice Modern atmosphere and yet a perfect link to a classic hotel.
Gym was amazing just like all infrastructure at the hotel.
Roof top with live jazz music 😊
Breakfast was not quite the quality we had hoped for and expected it to be.
Would be nice with the option for more light in the room. More lamps or higher lux.

SoHo house perfection! Comfortable and luxurious stay in Istanbul.
Soho house is in a great location near shops and a cool bookstore. SoHo house is near everything but feels removed from the noise because of the amazing landscaping. The architecture and interior decor are absolutely beautiful. This has been one of my favorite hotels around the world!
On top of that, the outdoor seating at the restaurant among the olive trees is perfect. I absolutely recommend Soho house Istanbul. All of the staff were extremely attentive and Ertan in particular was fantastic. Lastly, the fitness center facilities were top notch.

Lovely hotel, but with a couple of draw backs, especially for nonmembers.
Wonderfully and stylishly decorated; great gym; great spa; generally good service.
The distinction between hotel guests and Soho House members can cause some awkward moments as it was not clear what was available to us as guests who weren’t members until we tried to access certain things that weren’t available to us. That kind of bifurcation at a 5-star hotel felt odd.
Also, noise. Two of the three nights it was impossible to escape loud club music late into the night. Not really the hotel’s fault, but very difficult to get to sleep in peace and quiet before 1:00 am.

Had the best possible stay, came all the way from Australia and was greeted by welcoming and friendly staff. Was an exce
The design and aesthetic of the rooms and common spaces are beautiful. They have housekeeping twice daily and prepare your bed for you. The little details in the room takes the experience to the next level. The amenities are excellent.
The lightening in the room was a bit dim, especially in the bathroom. I found it too dark when applying make up and getting ready.

The best place to stay away from home
Amazing atmosphere, beautiful rooms, great views.
And the best pizza in town
The light in the elevator and hallways is too much dimmed… :)

Cosy and excellent
Our recent stay at Soho House Istanbul was nothing short of exceptional, and the incredible team truly elevated our experience. We would like to specifically commend Ozan at the front desk for his professionalism, warmth, and impeccable hospitality. From the moment we arrived, Ozan went above and beyond to ensure our comfort. His expert recommendations for authentic Turkish restaurants near the property were spot on, allowing us to explore the local cuisine in a genuine and memorable way. He handled all our support requests with efficiency and a smile, making us feel genuinely cared for throughout our stay.
Equally deserving of praise is Noortan from the housekeeping team. Her kindness, attention to detail, and willingness to assist with any request truly stood out. Noortan is a superstar in housekeeping, ensuring our room was immaculate and exuding warmth with her friendly demeanor. It’s rare to encounter such dedicated and thoughtful service, and her efforts did not go unnoticed.
Soho House Istanbul has clearly curated a team that embodies the highest standards of hospitality, and Ozan and Noortan are shining examples of this. We sincerely hope their exceptional contributions are recognized and celebrated. Thank you to the entire team for making our stay unforgettable—we can’t wait to return!

A great location and bedroom but falls short in the lounger area
The room and location
The general bar and breakfast area was underwhelming and it was ridiculously dark in the lifts and corridors

The best of the best, we will come again for sure!
We LOVED it all - the design, the location, amenities, everything was beyond exceptional. We can’t emphasize enough how amazing the hotel staff is, alongside the service they are providing - that definitely made our stay absolutely best one yet and totally worth it.
Nothing about the hotel itself, but the restaurants Cecconi’s and Allis’s staff and service were not up to the level that hotel staff is providing to the clients. I don’t want to write in details about the situations that disappointed us because we still think that hotel is absolutely THE BEST in Istanbul and would recommend it nonetheless.

A Luxurious Urban Retreat with Historic Charm
Soho House Istanbul is more than just a place to stay; it’s a destination in itself. With its luxurious accommodations, historic charm, and vibrant social scene, it offers an experience that is both exclusive and welcoming. Whether you’re in Istanbul for business, pleasure, or a bit of both, Soho House provides an unforgettable stay in one of the city’s most iconic neighborhoods. It’s the perfect choice for those who appreciate the finer things in life and want to immerse themselves in the cultural richness of Istanbul.
My recent experience with the guided tour organized by Soho House Istanbul left much to be desired. The tour felt more like a tourist trap (350 euros) than an immersive cultural experience, which was surprising given the brand’s reputation. The tour guide took us to his friends at the local market, where he was obviously getting a commission for the over-charged items. They tried to charge us 200 euros for herbal tea - I traveled to 80 countries therefore, I am quite aware of scam practices even though I always want to support local businesses as much as I can.

Great hotel, solid location. Bathrooms were a bit too dark, but overall we would stay here again.
The hotel was nice and clean. The room had a great view. The staff was very nice as well. The location was good, we were able to walk around the neighborhood for shopping and bars and restaurants. If you go, ask them for access to the rooftop bar, that view was amazing!!
The bathrooms were way too dark. Really need more light in there.

A hidden garden in the city
The hotel is lovely and lively, and even though there was a lot going on and loud music playing in the evening, the room was very quiet. Loved the abundance of choice for skin care amenities! Remzi arranged dinner reservations, tours and a hammam visit for us, and we felt very taken care of!
We didn't love the tour guide the hotel arranged...(it was an agency, and I don't think they chose the guide directly.)
There was a lot of pressure to buy things we didn't want from her friends at the market. Other than that everything went very smoothly.

Great stay, great staff, beautiful hotel
The location, the home away from home atmosphere, the friendly staff, the little goodies in the bathroom: cremes, deodorant, toothbrush, razor, lip balm and even condoms 😃🙃!
The lights are too dimmed in the corridors which makes it difficult to read rhe room numbers! Bathroom needs a bot of renovating but the whole stay was great.
